magic

Rating: Null/10 (10 October 2015)

Baricco. and Tornatore. Tim Roth. and a kind of parable.or delicate embroidery. a film who preserves the spirit and the flavor of original monologue. a film about life. as long trip. as form of fragile beauty. as mysterious gift. and a film about art. not only seductive but useful. because it reminds the old fairy tales. because it imagines large spaces of dreams. for the scene of duel. and, sure, for the music. a magnificent work. not for acting, image and script. but for the subtle emotions who remains after its end. a film who uses the old Tornatore's obsession about beauty. and its fragility who remains not only as sacrifice but as precious gift. a ship. a piano. and a man. few meetings. a strong friendship. and a shop. the magic of the past. and one of the memorable roles of Tim Roth.
